Here in Monmouth County, NJ, Classic has arrived.  I bought my first can of
it in Belmar, on the beach this afternoon.  I still had some original Old
Coke in the fridge (it's still not too hard to get around here), and drank 
it yesterday.  Maybe it was my imagination (hope so!), but they didn't taste
the same to me! Also, and perhaps more importantly, I checked the ingredients
of CCC next to a can of New Coke--identical!  Now, unless my net.memory 
has failed me, we learned that the ingredients changed from Old to New.
Classic and New with the same ingredients???  I think this may take some looking
into...?

At a recent party, low and behold, Classic Coke!!
I tried it - didn't taste like the Old Coke to me.
Take one down, pass it around - CONCURRENCE!!

Some true blue (I'd walk a mile for an Old Coke) types
didn't think it had the burn the original coke did either.

So does that mean we have three versions of Coca-Cola?
OLD COKE, NEW COKE, CLASSIC COKE

Thanks, but no thanks.  I'll ask for Pepsi or just
a carbonated, cola-like beverage!!  Don't even care if it's generic.
